Ling Yun's guess was correct. Facing the Mang army's attack, Li Hanhai had no problem coping with it, but he just felt a little unbelievable in his heart. Why did the Mang army rush to attack the city?
This question troubled him.
On the city, Yang Tinghe looked at the attacking Mang people below and asked with doubts, "General, what's going on with the Mang army?"

Li Hanhai shook his head, he couldn't understand either.
After a brief pause, Li Hanhai said confidently, "Soldiers will block it, water will block it, and water will cover it. No matter what the reckless army wants to do, I guarantee that Pingle City will not be broken open by Wanyan Pu."
How could being domineering not be a reflection of self-confidence?
Yang Tinghe looked at the fallen troops and said with a smile, "The general thought that Wanyan Pusan was either angry with shame this time, or wanted to wait for an opportunity to test our Pingyuefu defense. Unfortunately, this time he made the wrong calculation and gave himself It’s just adding casualties.”
Li Hanhai stared at the Mang people and said with an indifferent expression, "It would not be a pity if more of these cruel Mang people die."
Yang Tinghe nodded in approval.
The hatred of the family and the country meant that the death of a reckless man was not a pity, but it was a pity that as a powerful general, they could only hold on to the city and defend it.
On the first day of the siege, the enemy troops did not retreat until sunset.
After the Mang army retreated, Shi Zhan walked up to the two men and reported to Li Hanhai, "General, the enemy has retreated."
"Yeah~ I saw it." Li Hanhai nodded, and then asked about the casualties, "How many casualties did our army have?"

Shi Zhan said with a heavy heart, "General, 557 of our soldiers died in battle and 786 were injured..."
"Where are the enemies?"
Hearing this, Shi Zhan said with some sadness, "The enemy can't kill more than 500 people, and the enemy can't be injured more than 1,000 people..."
When Li Hanhai heard this, although it was expected, his heart was still severely touched. Sadness and helplessness were written on his solemn face. The enemy was strong and we were weak. We were defending the city, but our own casualties were not. The one who is far superior to the enemy's attacking force will feel infinite sadness in his heart.
Li Hanhai looked up to the sky and sighed, and said silently: The battle to defend the city is still like this. If our side and the reckless army are facing each other, the situation of the battle can be imagined. At this moment, he remembered Ling Yun's words and his remarks that day, and took the initiative to attack, even Annihilate the reckless army... Now that the defensive battle is going like this, it may give Ling Yun a wake-up call.
So he ordered, "Tinghe, after we go down, you will report the situation of today's battle to General Zhennan."
"What do you mean, General?"
Li Hanhai said in a low mood, "Although I don't want to admit it, this is the true combat power of our army. Telling General Zhennan is also to make General Zhennan give up the terrifying thoughts last time."
Yang Tinghe clasped his fists and said, "I will finally understand."
Li Hanhai was overly worried. Even if he didn't report it, Ling Yun would send people to pay attention to the trends on the battlefield. As for the battle situation between the two armies, especially the general's casualties, Ling Yun would not ignore it.

While several people were talking, Li Jianhui had already handed over a note to the General's Mansion and explained, "Shuai Ling, here is the number of casualties in the first battle between our army and Da Mang."
After hearing this, Ling Yun opened the note in his hand and stared at the number of casualties on the note for a while, falling into deep thought.
After a long while, he stood up and said with emotion, "The fighting power of the Mang people is indeed better than our army."
In the siege battle, the number of casualties of the Mang army was lower than that of the Pingle City defenders. Even the elite Nanyi army under his own command may not be able to achieve such an excellent battle. It is true that if the defense is
If the army were replaced by his team, the casualties of the reckless army would never be so low, at least they would be doubled several times. This was his confidence.
"Is there any news from Annan recently?" Ling Yun suddenly asked.
When Ling Yun asked Annan, he naturally wanted to ask about muskets and gunpowder, because he left this matter entirely in the hands of Li Jianhui. The reason for this was of course to make it easier to learn about Annan's news anytime and anywhere.
.
Li Jianhui shook his head and whispered, "Ling Shuai, there is no news about Annan at the moment."
"Hmm~ Pay close attention to the news over there." Ling Yun nodded slightly after listening. Annan is too far away from Pingyang. Even if there is news, it will not come so soon. We still need to wait patiently. Besides, the hundreds of gunpowder brought by the army this time
, if done properly, it would be enough for Mang Jun to eat, but he wanted more...
Li Hanhai briefly explained Shi Zhan, then left the city and went straight to the mansion.
As for defending the city, he did not have much pressure, so he remained in a good mood. In his opinion, today was the first battle, and Da Mang wanted to test it, so he concluded that Da Mang would not make a sneak attack at night.
Unfortunately, he guessed wrong this time.

The camp of the reckless army.
Huite cupped his fists and raised his hands, reporting, "General, the 50,000-strong army has been assembled."
"good!"
Wanyan Pusan shouted, and then ordered, "Send the order and let the dragon cavalry army continue to attack. You sit here and you must attract the enemy's attention. From now on until sunset tomorrow, why don't you
He intermittently directed the army to attack the city, creating the illusion that our army was about to break the city."
Huite held his head high and said, "General, I will obey your orders!"
Wanyan Pusan said with satisfaction, "When Liaocheng is defeated, you can meet me again in Liaocheng."
Huite squinted his eyes and blessed, "General, I will obey your orders. I wish you great success, a successful victory, and the victory of Liaocheng."
Hearing this, Wanyan Pusan laughed loudly, spread out his fingers and slowly closed them, and said shamelessly, "Hahaha... Liaocheng has long been in the possession of our army. By then, I will capture the entire Pingyang, okay?
Let the king and others know that I, Wan Yan Pu San, am the real number one warrior in Da Mang."
The two imagined the scene of breaking through Liaocheng, so they celebrated in advance, as if the gate of Liaocheng was very close at hand.
After Huite left, the first thing he did was to lead the army to Pingle City and prepare to attack Pingle City at night to attract the enemy's attention so that the army could leave quietly.

"General Shi, the reckless army made a sneak attack..."
"let's go…"
He took the Shizhan sword and said with a stern expression.
He remembered that when Li Hanhai left during the day, he told him that the reckless army would not attack the city tonight, so that he did not need to worry. At that time, he also believed that the enemy would not attack at night. After all, when attacking during the day, the reckless army did not get any benefits.
Needless to say, in the dim light, if you can't see the road clearly, how can you talk about attacking the city?
Doing so will only increase casualties for the army.
Unexpectedly, they had miscalculated, and the reckless army was willing to fight them at night, even at a heavy cost.
"General, general..."
As soon as Shi Zhan entered the city, someone immediately saluted him.
"How's it going?"
Shi Zhan looked at Yang Zailong and asked about the battle situation.

Yang Zailong immediately replied, "Back to General, our army has temporarily resisted the enemy's attack."
Then he frowned and said in confusion, "General, these reckless troops are like crazy. Every time they burn incense, they will attack our army. The enemy troops are coming fiercely, as if... they want to compete with our army."
Same, this is different from before, very strange."
"Yeah~ I know about this."
Shi Zhan nodded, indicating that he had written it down, but he didn't pay much attention to it, because he felt that Mang Jun might be anxious and wanted to compete with them, or maybe he was eager to make a contribution...
All in all, Shi Zhan didn't think about other aspects.
When the news reached Li Hanhai, he was seen pacing back and forth in the room with a frown on his face... He couldn't figure out why Mang Jun suddenly acted strangely, like a mad dog...
Just when he was bored, Yang Tinghe rushed in.
"General, General Zhennan invites you."
Because of what happened last time, Li Hanhai didn't really want to deal with Ling Yun. After much thought, he asked Yang Tinghe to contact and deal with the General's Mansion, so that he would not be disturbed or affected.
Hearing this, Li Hanhai paused slightly, and his eyebrows furrowed even more. At the same time, he cursed in his heart: He is very depressed at this time, why did Ling Yun come out to cause trouble when he has nothing to do?

It's really easy to look for trouble, only to cause trouble.
Li Hanhai cursed and showed strong dissatisfaction with Ling Yun's summons, but in the end, he still suppressed the displeasure and anger in his heart and went to the general's mansion.
